Unveiling The Emerald Tablets
In this age of Earth’s great transformation, many are returning to these writings not as students, but as rememberers. If you feel called to go deeper, Thoth offers guidance on how to read and understand the tablets.
A New Layer of Light • A Transmission from Thoth
Tablet 11 of The Emerald Tablets of Thoth focuses on the principle of “As Above, So Below”, which asserts that the events and patterns in the heavens reflect those on Earth and vice versa. Thoth discusses the Seven Lords, cosmic beings who govern the cycles of time and the workings of the universe. The tablet emphasizes the interconnectedness of all things, the cyclical nature of existence, and the importance of spiritual transformation and ascension. Thoth also highlights the ongoing struggle between light and darkness, urging seekers to strive for enlightenment and guard sacred knowledge carefully. The ultimate goal is to achieve mastery over the self and align with the higher forces, potentially leading to eternal life.
Important key points from Tablet 11:

Hear ye and list ye, O children of Khem,

Ye know, O men, that I knew your fathers,
aye, your fathers in a time long ago.
Deathless have I been through all the ages,
living among ye since your knowledge began.
Leading ye upward to the Light of the Great Soul
have I ever striven, drawing ye from out of the darkness of night.
Know ye, O people amongst whom I walk,
that I, Thoth, have all of the knowledge
and all of the wisdom known to man since the ancient days.
Keeper have I been of the secrets of the great race,
holder of the key that leads into life.
Bring ye up, O soul of the morning,
turn thy thoughts upward to the Light and to Life.
Find in the keys of the numbers I bring thee,
Light on the pathway from life unto life.

Pour forth thy flame as the Sun of the morning.
Shut out the darkness and live in the day.
Take thee, O man, as part of thy being,
the Seven who are but are not as they seem.

Follow the path in the way I have led.
Masters of Wisdom, Sun of the Morning Light and Life to the children of men.
